Thread: How hard is it to find a job in acting after being convicted of fraud?

Im only 19, and I am a Business Management student who made the worse mistake of his life and got arrested for the first time for fraud. However I have and have always had aspirations to be an actor. I would like to know if convicted, does it affect ytour chances to get an audition or anything related, especially if I have no other arrests? Thanks guys.

Just check the news paper. Tons of Actors have been busted at one time or another. So no, it doesn't matter.(but Disney may not hire you)

You aren't required to disclose your personal history when you go to an audition... and I definitely wouldn't include jail time on your resume. If you are a good actor, the director will not care about your past (as long as it does not affect your professionalism).
